Malicious rumours

Mysterio23

My sweet, innocent, naive 18 year old son with ASD is experiencing vile and malicious rumours going around about him at college which are completely untrue. We are at a loss at what to do. The police aren't interested.  We have informed the college but not all the culprits go there so there is little they can do. As a result, he is extremely depressed, anxious and is self harming. He wants to move colleges as his reputation is in tatter but I feel he shouldn't have to. Has anybody else's child experienced this awful traumatising stuff? We've been told it's a civil matter but no guarantee of getting an injunction or charges pressed and have to pay £300 per culprit!! Help!

  • Kids have no respect, these days. Sad reality of life. At that age, you're either a Lion in the making or a Wildebeest in the making.

    Having witnessed what our society has become, I wish every kid would be homeschooled. Schools were temperamental enough, in my days, but now they've been turned into Maximum Security Prisons. Some people in power allowed their personal resentments to forge their agenda.

    Rant over.

    Your son needs to be with those who appreciate his company; ie. other kids with Autism. He needs to create a Hobby; to motivate himself. Issuing Court-Orders on his Bullies is like asking a Shopaholic to remain in a Mall - with no money or cards - and expected not to steal.
